Gou Zai Sect Beast Taming Longevity

"Okay, thank you, senior. I will be careful."

Yu Changsheng nodded, expressed his gratitude to the Xuan Turtle once more, and felt a little relieved.

In any case, at least for now, the crisis has been temporarily averted.

Yu Changsheng knew that under those circumstances, facing the combined attack of multiple Golden Core Peak cultivators, he was no match at all; at most, he could only delay them for a while.

Therefore, the only way to break through the impasse is through an extraordinary method, and the Heavenly Tribulation is the method that Yu Changsheng came up with.

After all, he could break through to the Golden Core stage at any time, but he would have to face the Heavenly Tribulation. Since it was Yu Changsheng's first time undergoing the tribulation, he would not attempt it lightly without preparation.

"I never imagined that heavenly tribulation would become a means for me to save my life. Who could have foreseen this..."

Yu Changsheng muttered to himself, then shook his head and chuckled for a moment before letting out a soft sigh.

"It's a pity that this method can only be used to catch people off guard, and if it triggers another heavenly tribulation, the Xuan Turtle will no longer be able to conceal the secrets of heaven for me..."

Yu Changsheng was overjoyed to have managed to break through the encirclement of three people; as for anything else, he could not ask for more.

As for why he didn't take advantage of the tribulation to completely annihilate Chen Feng and the other two, Yu Changsheng had considered it, but ultimately it was unrealistic.

The main reason is that Yu Changsheng did not intend to undergo the tribulation now. If he forced Chen Feng and the other two to be caught up in the heavenly tribulation, then the Xuan Turtle would not be able to conceal the heavenly secrets for itself and temporarily avoid the lightning tribulation.

Secondly, that place is not a good place to undergo tribulation. Yu Changsheng could imagine that his opponent had gone to such great lengths to ambush and kill him, so there must be a backup plan. If he lingered there for too long, even if he eventually succeeded in overcoming the tribulation, the resulting disturbance would likely attract other pursuers.

At that time, it will be impossible for them to escape.

"Let's wait a bit longer. There's no rush to undergo the tribulation. At least, it's not safe here..."

Yu Changsheng pondered, his eyes lowered, his brows furrowed in deep thought.

"However, now the question of where to go has become a problem."

With that, Yu Changsheng cast a series of spells and made hand seals, and his vast divine sense was completely released. After confirming his location, he pondered for a moment, glanced at the surrounding environment, and headed east.

"If they've gone to such great lengths to kill me, they must have other methods. By the time they return to the sect, they might already be in a different state. Going now would be too risky."

Yu Changsheng frowned. "Now, my location is also on the edge of the border... The nearest place is... Purple Bamboo Mountain."

Purple Bamboo Mountain, located on the border of Wuzhou, is one of the most famous forbidden areas in Wuzhou. It is a place where demons roam and dangers abound. Every year, many cultivators go there, but they all perish there. Even those from the Purple Mansion must be careful with their words and actions within it.

"This desperate situation has now become my only chance to survive. Well, fortune favors the bold, and this is the only option for now."

After making up his mind, Yu Changsheng did not hesitate and headed towards Zizhu Mountain.

Even now, the faint sense of crisis deep in Yu Changsheng's heart has not dissipated, constantly reminding him that he is not out of danger and that there is always the risk of other enemies chasing after him at any time.

Since that's the case, then Zizhu Mountain isn't out of the question.

Moreover, Yu Changsheng had his own plans and confidence.

"Purple Bamboo Mountain..."

Yu Changsheng swallowed hard, his gaze deep and unfathomable.

"Cao Jinxian's remains seem to be here as well. In that case, let's go take a look together, this senior brother we've never met before..."

"I originally planned to come and take a look after I reached the Golden Core stage, but now, it doesn't matter if I come a little earlier. Fortune favors the bold, and who knows, this might be my lucky break."

Yu Changsheng continued flying away, his thoughts drifting like cotton, when suddenly he thought of something else. He felt a faint throbbing pain and a sense of crisis emanating from between his eyebrows, and he seemed to be deep in thought.

"However, on the other hand, my sense of crisis seems to be much sharper now... This feeling has been particularly strong since I began to merge with the Qi of Heaven."

"Is it a warning from Heaven? Or is it due to my constitution?"

Yu Changsheng pondered for a moment, then shook his head, suppressing these thoughts. Now was not the time to dwell on them.

Half an hour later, the mountains and rivers beneath his feet changed, and the clouds and mist surged. Yu Changsheng took a deep breath, paused, stood in the void, looked ahead, and his Adam's apple bobbed slightly.

"Purple Bamboo Mountain...we've arrived."

Ahead, a faint purple glow permeated the entire space, revealing an indescribable eeriness and ominousness, and further obscuring the scenery.

Rumu is a continuous mountain range that rises and falls around the border of Wuzhou, separating the areas of Wuzhou and Qingzhou. The border line stretches for thousands of miles, revealing a majestic presence.

The most striking feature is the purple hue that catches the eye, covering the entire mountainside. It is a dense expanse of purple bamboo, revealing glimmers of light, possessing a captivating power, beautiful and alluring. Other colors become mere embellishments at this moment. The purple bamboo shoots rise into the sky, swaying gently in the wind, exuding a myriad of charms.

Overall, it is quite beautiful and magnificent.

This is one of the forbidden areas of Wuzhou... Purple Bamboo Mountain.

"call……"

After letting out a long breath, Yu Changsheng's chest heaved. He gritted his teeth, glanced behind him, and without further hesitation, plunged into the Purple Bamboo Mountain Range.

"If you ignore the dangers involved, this place is indeed a rare and beautiful sight. I bet many people come here often."

Upon entering the Purple Bamboo Mountain Range, Yu Changsheng descended from the air and slowly stepped onto the ground. He released his divine sense, constantly alerting himself to the surrounding movements. Looking at the faint purple glow around him, he spoke with a touch of resignation.

Purple Bamboo Mountain stretches for thousands of miles. Although it is a restricted area, it is not dangerous at every turn. If one is careful in the outer perimeter, Yu Changsheng, with his cultivation level, will naturally not have any problems.

"However, the purple bamboo here seems rather peculiar?"

As Yu Changsheng walked along, looking at the purple bamboo around him, a thought struck him. He pondered for a moment, then slowly placed his hand on the purple bamboo, closed his eyes, and carefully felt its essence.

"The Myriad Spirits Technique..."

With his divine sense attached to the spirit, he climbed up the ever-spreading purple bamboo, and all the sounds and movements around him were instantly brought into Yu Changsheng's mind.

After an incense stick's time, Yu Changsheng slowly opened his eyes, a glint of shrewdness flashing in them.

"So that's how it is. The entire Purple Bamboo Mountain, all the purple bamboos, may seem scattered, but in reality, they are united and form a unified whole..."

"If needed, they can unleash their strongest power in an instant, destroying everything. It's like a perfectly coordinated formation, meticulously operated..."

With the blessing of the Myriad Spirits Technique, Yu Changsheng obtained some information.

"These purple bamboos in the entire Purple Bamboo Mountain are not ordinary plants. Many of them have given birth to a faint spirit, but they are usually in a dormant state."

"And this purple bamboo, I don't know if it's because of its special natural material or something else, but it gives me a faint feeling of restrained sword energy. These are all excellent natural materials for making fine swords..."

Yu Changsheng's brows relaxed, and he smiled slightly as he felt the faint stinging pain emanating from his divine sense.

"Fortunately, thanks to the concealment of the Myriad Spirits Technique, it seems that these purple bamboos do not have any ill intentions towards me, so the greatest danger can be eliminated."

The greatest characteristic of the Myriad Spirits Technique is its affinity with all things. This helped Yu Changsheng a lot back in Huishui Mountain, and it is still useful now in Zizhu Mountain.

Thinking this, Yu Changsheng sighed slightly and gently tapped the purple bamboo in front of him. The bamboo made a hollow, crisp sound and swayed gently.

"The Myriad Spirits Technique is indeed a good cultivation method, but the copy I have is incomplete and can only be used to cultivate up to the Purple Mansion level. Therefore, both logically and emotionally, I must come to Purple Bamboo Mountain and the cave dwelling of Cao Jinxian..."

"The later cultivation techniques should exist here..."

I'm currently reading the error-free version! This is the first time I've published this novel.

Thinking this, Yu Changsheng walked slowly forward, avoiding some of the spirit beasts along the way. An hour later, he finally made it out of the outer perimeter.

Upon reaching the inner circle, there wasn't a significant difference between it and the outer circle. The only difference was that the purple bamboo was denser and taller and straighter, and the hazy feeling revealed under the swaying purple light was even more intense.

"Um……"

Yu Changsheng's expression shifted slightly, his steps faltered, and a flash of light appeared in his hand, revealing an ancient-looking animal hide that suddenly unfolded before him.

"A map? It seems he can give me some guidance."

Under Yu Changsheng's close observation, he saw that a scarlet dot of light suddenly appeared on the originally calm, dark yellow, rustic animal hide map, flickering continuously, with purple lines densely covering it.

"Is this where the ruined cave is located?"

Yu Changsheng's expression shifted slightly. He wasn't surprised by the red dots on the animal skin map; they were formed from a drop of blood from Wen Longyu.

The purple patterns were clearly the surrounding terrain, pointing to the location of the cave.

The animal hide map floated on the water, its crimson dot standing out prominently, exuding an aura of unparalleled dominance and emanating a faint red glow that enveloped Yu Changsheng.

"It has this effect too? So that's what that drop of blood does."

Yu Changsheng opened his mouth slightly, looking at the faint red light enveloping him with some surprise, his eyes lighting up with joy.

The faint red glow enveloping him seemed to be formed from that drop of blood, and the aura it exuded was the best deterrent. With this deterrent, Yu Changsheng could avoid many dangers on Purple Bamboo Mountain and pass through unimpeded.

"That makes things much more convenient."

Yu Changsheng smiled gently, touched the faint red light surrounding him, checked the map to determine his location, and then headed towards the cave.

Along the way, a faint purple light permeated the air. Whenever it touched the red light on the outer layer of Yu Changsheng's body, it would suddenly shrink back and automatically disperse to make way for him.

"Shhh..."

The purple bamboo sways gracefully, its joints crystal clear, like purple crystals, quite lovely. Purple bamboo leaves droop down, and drops of dew fall, reflecting a purple glow. This scene is commonplace in Purple Bamboo Mountain.

Furthermore, faint murmurs echoed within the purple bamboo forest. The towering purple bamboos grew densely, obscuring the sky and blocking out the sunlight. Their intertwined forms created an eerie atmosphere amidst the silence.

The air suddenly went still. Yu Changsheng's heart tightened, his fists clenched inwardly, and his brows furrowed slightly. But he still let out a soft breath, maintained his composure, and walked forward.

Within the surrounding purple bamboo, he could feel malicious gazes fixed on him. And whether it was an illusion or not, the surrounding purple bamboo seemed to be slowly moving towards him as it drooped down.

However, these malicious gazes, after lingering on him for a while, disappeared without a trace, as if they were wary of something.

The faint murmurs around them gradually faded away.

"Is it just my imagination...?"

After a long while, as he stepped out of that area, a ray of sunlight slanted through the purple bamboo and shone in. Only then did Yu Changsheng let out a long breath, slowly loosening his clenched fist, and the feeling of being on edge gradually disappeared.

His back was already soaked.

Just now, the feeling of being spied on was particularly obvious. Yu Changsheng didn't know exactly what it was, but he could feel that the thing was so powerful that he couldn't possibly fight against it. Fortunately, in the end, the other party withdrew its gaze and did not attack him.

Clearly, that drop of blood saved his life, and that's what the other party feared.

Wiping the cold sweat from his forehead, Yu Changsheng shook his head, a bitter smile appearing on his face.

"It seems that the Myriad Spirits Technique is not omnipotent after all. There are naturally some unimaginable dangers within this kind of forbidden zone."

When facing a creature with an extremely strong sense of self, even the most powerful affinity with it has its limits, and the opponent will not be significantly affected.

"We need to find the cave quickly; we can't waste any more time. The crimson glow of the blood is already very faint and won't last much longer."

After taking a deep breath, Yu Changsheng coughed twice, glanced at the red light surrounding him that had faded considerably, and quickened his pace.

Unbeknownst to him, after Yu Changsheng had walked far away, within the hazy purple light of the bamboo forest behind him, a pair of enormous beast eyes, each over a meter wide and glowing red, suddenly appeared, staring at the direction Yu Changsheng had left, motionless for a long time.

Dimly visible within the hazy purple light, one could discern the outline of a massive body, its form indistinct and shifting.

The surrounding purple bamboo swayed gently, yet all seemed to bend slightly towards it, as if a subject had encountered a king to whom he was required to kneel. The entire purple bamboo fell silent for a moment, with only the sound of the wind whistling softly.

"He carries that person's aura... not just because of that drop of essence blood, but also because of the cultivation technique he practiced... they share the same origin..."

A faint, lingering sound slowly echoed, yet it exploded like thunder, as if it were a divine decree, carrying an unstoppable pressure that crushed all the purple bamboo around it.

And so, the purple bamboo swayed and bent even lower... (End of Chapter)
